The new MQ Series represents the next generation of perma-
nent installation loudspeaker systems. The Series comprises
matched sets of mid/high and low frequency enclosures that
enjoy complementary dimensions and trapeziod angles to
facilitate the creation of optimized-coverage arrays. The
MQ1312 uses three direct radiating 12-in woofer cones in an
optimally tuned, vented enclosure.
The MQ1312 low frequency module works with the MQ1364,
MQ1366 and MQ1394 mid/high modules to create arrays for
use in a wide variety of permanently installed applications. 
The most common array configuration is 2x MQ1364’s or
MQ1366’s separated by a single MQ1312. In such an array, a
certain amount of splay must be provided to achieve optimal
coverage.
When arraying 2x MQ1394’s separated by a single MQ1312,
the modules should be tight packed to achieve optimal cov-
erage. This provides an excellent center channel array for
large, fan-shaped venues that use an L/C/R configuration.
All MQ Series enclosures feature a comprehensive system of
3/8”-16 threaded mounting points for maximum flexibility
when suspending arrays overhead.
Applications include:
Large Houses of Worship
Arena
Stadiums
Theater
Performing Arts Center
